  Hi there,
  The default timezone is UTC time. You can reset your timezone here > Settings > General
  Select the closest city to you in the same timezone in the drop-down menu you see there and then click “save changes”.

  I know you aren’t scheduling a post but you may have to edit the existing one and change the date and time so please see the image here http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/schedule-a-post/
